Dedicated Revocable Living Trust Attorneys in Naperville, Illinois
Setting up a trust is likely one of the most important decisions you can make for your family and your estate. A revocable living trust directly provides for your loved ones and allows a designated trustee to perform the terms of the trust without court intervention. At the Davi Law Group, in DuPage County, Illlinois, our attorneys are well versed on the intricacies of estate planning and will make sure you understand every available option.
Understanding the Benefits of a Revocable Living Trust
A legally sound revocable living trust is one that is properly funded and provides for you in health and sickness and takes care of your loved ones after you die. Unlike a will, which must go through Probate Court before execution, a revocable living trust can be administered immediately without court involvement, which is key to providing privacy as to the contents and value of your estate. The trustee can carry out the terms of the trust, providing for beneficiaries and handling estate issues in compliance with the Illinois Trusts and Trustees Act (760 ILCS 5/1-21). Benefits of having a revocable living trust include:
- Not having to deal with Probate Court
- Ability to keep certain estate details private
- Built-in asset protection for beneficiaries
- Automatic trustee succession options
- Ability to structure the Trust to fit your needs
These are just a few benefits that come with establishing a revocable living trust. The Davi Law Group can guide you through every benefit as well as explain any disadvantages. Based on your situation, it may be beneficial to have a will in conjunction with a revocable living trust.
